Good { morning, afternoon, evening },

We're working on an update to BBEdit 10.5 to address a few recently reported issues.

Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. The intent is to fix bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our customers have reported. However, since the software is at this point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions. If this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the public release versions is your best course of action. Nobody will be offended if you choose to do so; you're under no obligation to install and use anything but a public release. :-)

Following is a summary of the changes in the software since the last pre-release bild. The change notes are organized into additions, changes, and fixes, and are annotated where appropriate with case numbers. So if you recognize a number corresponding to a support case that was opened for you, you can now verify that it's been fixed correctly. Please take the time to review the changes before using the new build -- it'll be worth your time.

Change notes for the previous pre-release build are available here: <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/bbedit/Xq-hLOL_d5Y/FpTXk9IUzpMJ>.

One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version, PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please send a bug report to <[email protected]> and we will deal with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on topic and productive for all list members.

Fixes
-----

*   [284947] We now preflight the use of `xcrun` and avoid it if we
    can determine that the developer command-line tools were not
installed. The `AskXcodeForCommandLineTools` expert preference is
    now obsolete.

*   [284947] Because the factory installed `svn` actually brings up
    a dialog box when invoked on 10.9 and the Xcode command-line
    tools are not installed, we now detect this condition and
    suppress Subversion support appropriately. This resolves
    situations in which the alert to install the developer tools
    would appear unexpectedly.

*   [284984] Fixed crash which would occur if an error occurred
    while trying to save an FTP/SFTP bookmark's password into the
    keychain. (The error is now logged to console, instead.)

*   [284938] Fixed bug in which heavy FTP logging activity would
    cause the application to run out of memory and crash.

*   Fixed bug in which the FTP log file was created with (usually
    incorrect) random permissions. It is now created `u+rw` as
    intended.
